Metamorphosis of Love: Tay Redinger's Butterfly Journey
Lyrics
My favorite candle you bought me
Expressing gratitude for a gifted candle
It burned out just yesterday
Noting the recent expiration of the candle
I only burned it sometimes
Indicating infrequent use to preserve memories
So the memory of you would stay
Using the candle to retain thoughts of the person
Like watchin' movies on my couch, open presents
Recalling shared moments like watching movies
The delight that's on your face
Describing the joy reflected on the person's face
I learned your language
Learning and understanding the person's language
Type seven
Referring to a mysterious "Type seven"
Oh, you want to get away
Noting a desire to escape
Sunshine we on the way
Anticipation of a sunny future together
Memories on
Repeated emphasis on memories and replaying them
Memories on
-Memories on
-Replay
-Memories on replay
Stressing the continuous replay of memories
I get down on my knees and pray
Expressing prayer-like reflection
Like a butterfly
Symbolizing transformation and renewal like a butterfly
In a chrysalis
-Wash away the pain
Seeking renewal and cleansing from pain
Make me brand new
-Lord it's dark inside
Recognizing darkness but having faith in light
But I believe there is light
-Growing on my own
Expressing personal growth and questioning the whereabouts of someone
Where are you (know you're healing too)
-Like a
Repeated imagery of a butterfly spreading wings and flying
Like a
-Spread my wings and fly just like a
-Like a butterfly
-Like a

Continued growth and questioning the whereabouts
Where are you

Like a

-Let it shine through
-Broke free
-From codependency
Describing a unique connection with a divine figure
He's not like the rest of what we've seen
-In the arms
-Of the King
-He's so close
Emphasizing closeness and a significant dream encounter
Divine meeting in my dream
-Here's the gifts and tools
Receiving gifts and tools for use
Go use them
-Wisely
-Like a butterfly
Comparing personal transformation to a butterfly
In a chrysalis
-Father of the fatherless
Referring to a higher power as the father of the fatherless
Make it all brand new
-I do not know why it's you
Expressing uncertainty about the chosen path but trusting divine guidance
But I knew at Maverick city
-Last June
-You Redeem the orphan
-You illuminate the night (you illuminate the night)
-My future so bright, from your Holy throne
-I knew at (maverick city last June)
Reiteration of transformation and being made new

Emphasizing assistance in spreading wings and flying
You help me spread my wings and
